This weekend DH and I took a little time away and went to our local monthly Antique Fair, it happens the last Sunday of the month April - September. I like going and seeing if I can find any treasures :) I only ended up buying a funky yellow and white necklace this go but I did see some weird and funny things that I have to share.

The storm held off yesterday until shots rang out in salute and the drops grew steady and forlorn as taps echoed. The rain reflected the feeling of the last week and though we were all wet nothing could have been more appropriate to hide the tears than the sky's own.
